R.E.M. "World Leader Pretend" (Live)

By Kyle Meredith
Published October 18, 2016 at 4:38 PM EDT

R.E.M.'s "World Leader Pretend" is now part of the 30 Days, 30 Songs series from author Dave Eggers. The classic is featured here in live form and while it is more a song about a battle within someone, it certainly fits in with the theme of this series (especially that title). Bottom line, we really miss R.E.M.
